Nikon F2 w/ 43-86 zoom in the early '80s.
But it wasn't the camera that got me into photography, but an opportunity to showcase our inner city neighborhood, which needed me to pick a a beat-up camera that I had repaired to working condition to start shooting. I became a Nikon shooter ever since.
This one shows more of the front but with little lens distortion. The other has more character but needs some post work to correct for the distracting wide angle distortion, still the car gets lost in the photo. I've had many 'almost' photos too.
